FireWise of Southwest Colorado is putting on a Wildland Fire Fuels Mitigation Workshop on Oct. 20. The day will be packed with introductions to techniques and tools for selecting and removing unhealthy trees and brush so thick a rabbit wouldn't go.
The workshop includes ways to get rid of the slash and reduce long-term maintenance.
There will be field instruction in central Montezuma County, demonstrations with mechanized equipment, and opportunities for hands-on practice with nontechnical tools to improve your ability to reduce the threat of wildland fire and choose the appropriate techniques for the job.
The workshop will be $20 and $10 for FireWise Neighborhood Ambassadors. The workshop is planned for Sunday, Oct. 20.
